Unfortunately we can’t deliver buckets of candy with this week’s update, but we do have a lot of new features and updates to tell you about. Even better!

Setting up alert notification intervals

Until now notifications of active alerts would only be sent once each time the status of the alert changed.
Now, by configuring alert notification intervals in the monitor settings, notifications for active alerts will be continuously re-sent after a designated period of time.

In chat tools where notifications can easily got lost in the stream of messages and overlooked, notifications will now be re-sent continuously until the alert is closed.

This feature can be used with metric monitoring and external monitoring as well.

Data from before service registration now displayed in graphs

Until now, even if past data had been posted to service metric graphs, only data from the day when the service was registered and on would be displayed.
With this week’s update, data from before when the service was registered will be displayed in graphs as well.

Service metrics can now be easily used for the purpose of importing individually aggregated past data.
